like the title says i hear this weird water gurgling noise like water flowing inside my engine when i start up the car

it only happens when the car has been idle for a while and it only started happening recently after i installed my headers

once i start the car up i hear water flowing for like 2sec then it goes away....when i turn off the car and start it back up i cant hear it anymore unless i wait like a good hour and then start it back up i can hear it again

any inputs would be helpful thanks

 

What kind of headers?? Did you remove the upper coolant hard pipes? If so, there may be air on the cooling system that needs to be bled out. The sound you hear is bubbles in the system.

 

yea it was top speed i think.....but they did remove the coolant hard pipes and it does sound like bubbles

 

thanks though im pretty sure thats the problem because the guy told me to drive around the block to make sure there werent any bubbles to cause my engine to overheat.......there is no over heating issues but man i was scared at first because it sounded like my engine sucked in a crap load of water
